DIY Kid Room Decor-Monogram Photo Wall

I am SOOOOO excited to share this DIY Kid Room Decor-Monogram Photo Wall with you. My 3 1/2 year old twins recently moved into the same room (to make room for babies). I needed some fun wall art for above their beds. I needed it to coordinate, not be too girly or too boyish, and not be too expensive.

I had a really fun time creating this easy to do, monogram photo wall.

Here are the steps to crate your own Monogram Photo Wall:

Step 1: Gather frames, photos and letters that coordinate with your bedding, pillows and other decor.

I found chipboard letters, wooden letters and metal letters. I rounded up frames that I already had and was about to give away. I also used Mod Podge to create a 8×10 photo canvas. Much less expensive than ordering a wrapped photo canvas. I wanted this to be very cute and very inexpensive because we weren’t sure how long A & B could last in the same room (we have already had many 4 am room parties and midnight roamers-but it is getting better! Hallelujah!)Step 2: Trace your letters and frames onto paper and cut out the patterns.Step 3: Use the paper letters and frames to move around and position your photo wall. I moved these patterns around several times until I found a good fit. You can’t really mess up-I found that there were a few different ways to place the letters and frames and they all looked great.Step 4: Hammer your nails in the correct spot on your paper pattern-so that all you have to do in remove the paper and hang your letters and photos on the nails.Step 5: Hang those photos and letters! I have to say, these photo walls were a huge hit with my kiddos. They loved having “their special letter” above their beds, as well as photos of themselves! Very cute and an inexpensive way to spruce up a child’s room.

It would also be fun to create a photo wall in your family room with family photos. I’d love to see photos of your Monogram photo walls!

What a great idea! My sister has three kids. Girl, boy, girl and she’s thought about putting them all in one room so she can have a play room but she’s a little uncertain on how to go about giving them their own little space. Especially with her son. This is a great solution! I have 5 boys. The 10 year old and 9 year old share a room with bunks so do the 6 year old and two year old. What a great way to personalize their little nook!!! The baby is in his own room and I was looking for just the right wall decor for the wall where his crib is! Sorry to go on but I love that this is personal and yet still uniform. I love it! Thanks for sharing!!

The wall turned out so cute! You mentioned that you modge podged a picture to make a canvas print . . . Did you just take a regular canvas and glue the picture on with modge podge and then m.p. over the top of it, too? I love gallery wraps, so I’d love to know how you made yours! 🙂

I love it!! I plan on doing this above my little girls bed now! But what is that wall color?? I’ve been looking for a good green but can’t find one I like, but I really like the color of your walls. Do you remember the name?

This is fantastic! Since the housing market is terrible here, we are getting ready to move our 6-year old son and our 2 1/2-year old daughter into the same room to make way for baby #3 and I have been looking for a way to make the room more personal for both of them (and not to girly or boyish). Thanks for sharing 🙂
